It's all too confusing - the CIC basically run a disgraceful system, and we (out of desperation) read into every technical glitch of it as if it were a message from god.
Hahaha ... very true but exact depiction of picture. However, the best way is to try to get involved in other things and pay minimum attention to this process. I know its easier said than done. But at least we can look at the positives. Before this EE thing - PR used to take years and i know of cases which were cancelled / refused (due to CIC's incapability of handling backlogs) after 3 years or longer.
When coming to Canada - i waited for 10 months for work permit processing where as it was supposed to take 2-3 months.
Viewing all that - EE is much better. Let's hope we all get positive outcomes - soon. Good luck
